oversight which they might easily have
avoided, they could have gone ON IN

deposit them to his account. The checks

Columbia bank for collection, and alter

nsrved by the cry for help and a way
was speedily chopped to the victims.
show long are You internal blaok-
guards goin' to be a-getting me ont?" the
apparently mangled wretch shouted
when he was reached. The victim
smelled OF whisky, but the workers
finally broke through the rubbish and
the smell OF alcohol and pulled the fell
low out.
"Now ye'ye got me out, go back and
get me Two packs OF tobacker and me
pipe"
The man was not injured q particle.
He had been comfortably drunk when
the accident occurred, and went tc sleep
Immediately afterward. When the
whisky evaporated the noise Of the req
cuers disturbed the excursionist and he
began to make a fuss.
A very dangerously injured MAJ prob
ably escaped with his life through O
whisky bottle. He was provided against
Q change OF water and had not taken any
for several hours before leaving Peoria
The crash ground the pint bottle in his
pocket fine enough for rat poison, bat

let him off with q lot of severe bruises.
The jolt unsettled his digestion. and
when he was taken ont OF the wreck he
vomited c%opiously. His friends began to

mens Saturday night at s O'Clock by the
report that Winter, the burglar, had
escaped. About half past 8 Attorney
Nichols went to the court house to have
q consultation with Winter, whom Mr..
Nichols will defend. Tailor Reg nick IN
locked the door and allowed Mr.. Nichols
to enter. They passed to the rear Of the
cage, when almost instantly MIR. Rey nick
came around the cage in an opposite
direction, inquirinG for Winter, but the
festive fellow had yamoosed. An alarm
was gwen at once by Mr.. Eckert
firing three shots from his revolver and
blowing his hunters whistle. just be.
tore 1t was discovered that Winter had
~absconded. q lad by the name OF EDDY
was passing the court-house and cav by
the light from a window, y man get into
the area pit of one of the windows on
the south side of the Jail. He essayed to
raise an alarm but Wat told by O man
standing near TO be still. This was I'M
doubtsdly a confederate; but Bovee,
having been attracted by the shots.
came running from his residence, when
young Eddy exclaimed, "Bovee, here
he is, and Winter crawled out looking
very much discounted. The wonder
then was how he got Many theories
were advanced, but the true solution is
undoubtedly as follows: Reyn,ok was
sitting up STAIRS On the outside porch
for some time Just prior
to the discovery. Winter reached
through a hole there ia in the door graf.
ing and unlocked the lock, threw off the
hasp, stepped out, relocked the door,
gave the iron key back to some OF the
inmates, who seGfeted it IN the chimney
where 1t was found after diligent search
with several wooden keys made from
chair rounds that would unlock almost
any look about the building. When
outside the jail he passed through the
sheriff's office, through the hell and
woodshed and thence out of o window
to freedom. As he passed through the
woodshed he secured a cotton cord long
enough to hold up the chain on the
manacles he wore, so that they would
not rattle. Winter is sleek. slim and
silent, aud will be closely watched in
future.
